Sorry, but... Hopkins is absolutely pathetic.

    Hopkins was a joke, i cant believe how negative he was!?!? Even his own fans were booing the decision.

    Eastmans a raw fighter and i expect Hopkins too win well on points, when i heard the result i wasnt supprised but after seeing it how the **** did the judges have it so one sided? Eastman took the fight too him, Hopkins had a couple of scoring shots per round and thats it.

    Hopkins cant be P4P 1 anymore, that isnt the same man who schooled Tito.

    I'd love to see Calzaghe vs Hopkins now, Calzaghe's skills are pretty raw too but i think he'd hand Nard his ass.

      I am suprised elv, I had no clue you were that type of fan, I always had you pinned as the intelligent /strategic fan

      it's sad this generation x type fan base boxing has nowadays, but with tyson leering in the past it was inevitable. tyson created thousands of fans that only love the sport to see aggressive knockouts, and they think that's all the sport is.

      what b-hop did vs eastman was legendary, to say that is a joke is uncomprehensible

      in round one I remember when bhop made that first left pivot feint, I sat up and said 'damn!' out loud, I was hella impressed at the way the old man could feint like that. it isnt all about aggression...you need to appreciate his legacy of longetivity

      the shots bhop did land were perfectly timed and perfectly placed, eastman was defenseless against every shot hop landed, because he flawlessly landed them. But in the eyes of a novice that only watches the sport to see aggressive KO's, i can see how he can come off as a joke, so it's understandable.

      While you may not have noticed it, every single thing Eastman did was exploited by Hop, even the couple of punches eastman was able to land,nard landed also on those exchanges.

      I remember once, I forget which round it was though, Eastman landed a weak shot on B-hops face and hop got pissed, came forward fearlessly with a left right and stuck eastman with both.

      he overly dominated eastman, just not aggressively. you can't seriously expect a forty year old fighter to bring it to the younger guy...

          lol,calzaghe

          who the hell is that? oh yeah, I don't know because he hasn't ever fought outside of europe....he calls himself a world class fighter, lol..all he's doing is beating little fish in a wading pool, if and when he does step up to nard, he'll get routinely executed, no doubt.

              just another hatton...sure he's undefeated, but against mostly ****ty fighters in a ****ty circuit to begin with

                To give such an ill advised view on Calzaghe, you must be either ******ed, or not seen any Calzaghe fights. I thought it was just the officials in the states who were currupt and clueless. But you dont do yourselves as fight fans any favours saying ****** things like that. Hopkins will get murdered by Calzaghe. That's why he, and that bum Glen Johnson (who you ******s voted 'fighter of the year' over Ronald Wright), have ducked him for the past few years.

                Does Hopkins remind you of a Monty Python movie? 'Run away,run away'.

                  ..and talking of never fighting outside his own backyard. What about Roy Jones. George 'Himler' Bush could teach that coward about geography.

                    What does it matter how good he looks in his fights if he is up against ****ty fighters in a ****ty circuit?

                    That's like saying Tyson looked good in the Etienne fight, look who he was fighting. Go back to whatever hole you crawled out of, mr. full red bar of ****ty reputation.

                    I suggest you stop now, while you are behind, before you further disgrace the Calzaghe fans

                      No It didnt really remind me of monty python because I stay away from your Euro-*** culture...Not only is your comedy not funny...but most of your fighters just don't cut it...that's why you Euro-**** ***** and moan whenever one of your **** lose.
